摘要: A single, integrated catheter is capable of performing balloon angioplasty followed by delivery of a stent without removing the catheter from the patient's body. In one embodiment, a balloon placed near the catheter's distal end is first used for pre-dilatation of a vascular stenosis. The catheter is then advanced until a stent placed within a stent containment cavity located just proximal to the balloon is placed within the dilated stenosis. An outer sheath is then pulled back which allows a self-expanding stent to be deployed radially outward. The balloon is then pulled back inside the stent and reinflared to embed the stent into the dilated stenosis. An alternative embodiment of the invention uses a side opening in the catheter located just proximal to the stent containment cavity as an entry port for a flexible guide wire thus providing a "rapid exchange" capability for the integrated catheter.

摘要: An expandable temporary stent system (10) is provided for creating a temporary stent within a vessel of a human body and includes an over-the-wire balloon angioplasty catheter (20) having a central lumen (26) and a distal section having an inflatable balloon (23). The balloon angioplasty catheter (20) has a proximal section that remains outside the body. A stent assembly (30) is slidably mounted on the balloon angioplasty catheter (20) in a coaxial manner and has a proximal section as well as a distal section where a temporary stent (31) is located at the distal section. The distal end of the stent assembly (30) is fixed to the distal section of the balloon angioplasty catheter (20). The proximal end of the temporary stent (31) is fixed to a distal end of a pusher tube (32). The pusher tube (32) cooperates with the proximal section of the balloon angioplasty catheter (20) and allows the temporary stent (31) to be reversibly deployed in a radial outward manner responsive to inflation of the balloon and, retracted so that the temporary stent (31) reforms around the balloon (23) of the balloon angioplasty catheter (20) for providing blood flow through the vessel and removal of the system from the vessel of the human body.

摘要: The present invention is a multi-cell stent having at least two different types of cells with each type of cell accomplishing a different purpose. For example, a first type of cell is intended to provide a maximum radial rigidity after stent deployment. A second type of cell is designed to provide increased longitudinal flexibility prior to stent deployment and after stent deployment into a main artery, the second type of cell can be readily balloon expanded at the ostium of a side branch artery to a comparatively large diameter without breaking any of the struts of the stent cell. By this technique, unobstructed blood flow into the side branch can be provided.

摘要: An ergonomic vascular access needle (10) is provided which has a transparent body (20) having an extended and small diameter capillary lumen (22) through which blood may be observed. The extended capillary lumen (22) is in fluid communication on opposing ends with a variable volume chamber (25) and a needle lumen (32). A movable plunger (40) within the transparent body (20) is displaceable to create the variable volume chamber (25). The distal end of the needle (30) is then pushed through the patient's skin and the plunger (40) is displaced from a forward position to create a suction within the capillary lumen (22), the needle lumen (32) and the variable volume chamber (25). The needle (30) is then advanced until the needle distal opening (33) is within the venous lumen and blood is observable in the capillary lumen (22). A guide wire (50) is then advanced through a lumen (42) of the plunger (40) which causes a plug (47) to be pushed into the variable volume chamber (25) and a guide wire (50) is then advanced into the venous lumen. In this manner, the guide wire (50) may be inserted into the venous lumen without external squirting of the blood.

摘要: Disclosed is a system for the detection of cardiac events that includes an implanted device called a cardiosaver, a physician's programmer and an external alarm system. The system is designed to provide early detection of cardiac events such as acute myocardial infarction or exercise induced myocardial ischemia caused by an increased heart rate or exertion. The system can also alert the patient with a less urgent alarm if a heart arrhythmia is detected. Using different algorithms, the cardiosaver can detect a change in the patient's electrogram that is indicative of a cardiac event within five minutes after it occurs and then automatically warn the patient that the event is occurring. To provide this warning, the system includes an internal alarm sub-system (internal alarm means) within the cardiosaver and/or an external alarm system (external alarm means) which are activated after the ST segment of the electrogram exceeds a preset threshold.

摘要: The present device has increased longitudinal flexibility in a stent by having some curved sections of each circumferential set of strut members being unconnected to the curved sections of the adjacent circumferential set of strut members with the other curved sections being connected by highly flexible, undulating longitudinal connecting links. The present device prevents flaring of the unconnected strut members by having a shorter longitudinal length for the unconnected strut members, and may have generally shorter longitudinal lengths for all the strut members in the circumferential sets of strut members at the stent ends to reduce the tendency for end flaring of the stent. Finally, the stent demonstrates that the flexible longitudinal connecting links of the curved sections of the sets of strut members are connected at a point that is close to the line where the diagonal sections join the curved sections, thus further reducing the propensity for end flaring.

摘要: Disclosed is a system for detecting an acute myocardial infarction (i.e., a heart attack) at the earliest possible time and promptly warning the patient that he should immediately seek medical care. The present invention includes an implantable electronic system that can sense a change in the patient's electrogram that is indicative of a heart attack. If a heart attack is sensed, the device would then cause an implantable and/or externally located alarm to be actuated to warn the patient of his condition and a medical practitioner at a remote diagnostic center would receive the patient's electrogram for analysis. The patient or a caretaker would then be informed to self-inject medication through a subcutaneous, pass-through drug port that can be a separate device or integrated into the implanted device that is designed for the early detection of a heart attack. Since an implantable heart pacemaker or defibrillator already has within its structure many of the elements required for the device to recognize a heart attack, it would be expeditious to add a capability to these existing devices to detect a heart attack, have a pass-through drug port and provide an implantable and/or external alarm means to inform the patient to take appropriate action.

摘要: Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. A heart attack (also known as an Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI)) typically results from a thrombus that obstructs blood flow in one or more coronary arteries. The extent of damage to the myocardium from an AMI is strongly dependent upon the length of time prior to restoration of blood flow to the heart muscle. Acute myocardial infarction and ischemia may be detected from a patient's electrocardiogram (ECG) by noting an ST segment shift (i.e., voltage change) over a relatively short (less than 5 minutes) period of time. The present invention is a guardian system including electrodes, a cardiosaver device having AMI detection capability and an alarm means to warn the patient that they have had an AMI or other serious cardiac event and should immediately seek medical attention. Such a warning would facilitate getting medical treatment quickly to restore blood flow to the patient's heart muscle. The present invention provides accuracy of detection by comparing a recently collected electrogram data with baseline electrogram data collected at an earlier time when the heart signals were normal. False positives are reduced by requiring multiple detections separated by a predetermined time interval. The present invention can identify and differentiate between an acute myocardial infarction, exercise induced ischemia and other anomalous cardiac conditions. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention the electrodes and the cardiosaver are implanted and the guardian system includes an external alarm system that can produce an external alarm signal and also has means to turn off the alarm.
摘要翻译: 心脏病是美国的主要死亡原因。 心脏病发作(也称为急性心肌梗死(AMI))通常是由阻塞一个或多个冠状动脉血流的血栓引起的。 AMI对心肌的损伤程度很大程度上取决于恢复血液流向心脏肌肉之前的时间长短。 通过在相对较短(少于5分钟)的时间段内注意ST段移位(即,电压变化),可以从患者的心电图(ECG)中检测到急性心肌梗塞和局部缺血。 本发明是一种监视系统,包括电极,具有AMI检测能力的心脏保护器装置和警告装置,用于警告患者已经患有AMI或其他严重的心脏事件,并且应该立即就医。 这样的警告将有助于迅速治疗以恢复患者心脏肌肉的血流。 本发明通过将最近收集的电描记图数据与当心脏信号正常的较早时间收集的基线电图数据进行比较来提供检测的准确性。 通过要求以预定时间间隔分开的多个检测来减少假阳性。 本发明可以鉴别和区分急性心肌梗死,运动性诱导的缺血和其他异常心脏病状。 在本发明的优选实施例中,植入电极和心脏保护器,并且监护系统包括可产生外部报警信号的外部报警系统,并且还具有关闭报警的装置。
